Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate why entrepreneurial universities choose a particular business strategy focussing on diversification and multi-nationalisation, and the role of intellectual capital (IC) in supporting such strategies. Design/methodology/approach The research question is answered through an exploratory case study of the University of Bari, Italy. Data were collected from strategic plans, annual reports, national evaluation reports and semi-structured interviews with the university’s board members and analysed using Secundo et al.’s (2016) collective intelligence framework. Findings The authors show how contingency factors, such as economic and historical reasons, justify both the diversification and internationalisation strategies, and how they both rely on IC. Practical implications The results of this study can be used by managers to support the development of entrepreneurial university strategies. Originality/value The paper is novel because it provides theoretical justification to strategy development in a university setting. Additionally, the findings contribute to the fourth stage of IC research by showing how IC can be used to support diversification and internationalisation in a university and support third mission goals. Finally, the paper provides an empirical application of the Secundo et al.’s (2016) model for understanding IC in universities.

创业型大学与战略:以巴里大学为例

目的本文的目的是调查为什么创业型大学选择专注于多元化和跨国化的特定商业策略,以及智力资本(IC)在支持此类策略中的作用。设计/方法论/方法通过对意大利巴里大学的一项探索性案例研究来回答研究问题。数据是从战略计划,年度报告,国家评估报告以及与大学董事会成员的半结构化访谈中收集的,并使用Secundo等人(2016年)的集体情报框架进行了分析。结论作者展示了诸如经济和历史原因之类的偶然性因素如何证明多元化和国际化战略的合理性,以及它们如何都依赖集成电路。实际意义经理可以使用本研究的结果来支持企业大学战略的发展。原创性/价值本文是新颖的,因为它为大学环境中的战略发展提供了理论依据。此外,这些发现还展示了如何将IC用于支持大学的多元化和国际化并支持第三项任务目标,从而为IC研究的第四阶段做出了贡献。最后,本文提供了Secundo等人(2016)模型的经验应用,以理解大学中的IC。这些发现通过展示如何将IC用于支持大学的多元化和国际化并支持第三项任务目标,从而为IC研究的第四阶段做出了贡献。最后,本文提供了Secundo等人(2016)模型的经验应用,以理解大学中的IC。这些发现通过展示如何将IC用于支持大学的多元化和国际化并支持第三项任务目标,从而为IC研究的第四阶段做出了贡献。最后,本文提供了Secundo等人(2016)模型的经验应用,以理解大学中的IC。
